Indices end higher; Sensex above 60,000, Nifty over 18,000

Benchmark indices ended higher with Sensex and Nifty both closing over 60,000 and 18,000 respectively, due to firm inflows from foreign investors and improving macro parameters.

Markets continued to remain in the thick of the action, aided by strong global cues and FII buying momentum. What is adding to the fizz has been the return of the FIIs into local shares over the past month or so and the falling US dollar index.
